AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The invention relates to a group of compounds, called cyclic guanidines, which are found to be effective in treating osteoarthritis by inhibiting the enzyme cathepsin D with high selectivity compared to other enzymes, such as renin and pepsin. These compounds have good stability in synovial fluid, making them suitable for intra-articular administration. Additionally, these compounds have been found to reduce inflammation-induced thermal hyperalgesia, a symptom of osteoarthritis, at certain dosages. Therefore, the invention provides an effective treatment for osteoarthritis with a reduction of inflammation-related pain.

Problems solved by technology

For the patient, however, pain (load-dependent and nocturnal rest pain) with subsequent function impairments are to the fore.
This rule is generally regarded as the cause of the increased occurrence of arthrotic changes in supporting joints which differ from the ideal anatomical shape.
These medicaments result in complexing of magnesium ions in poorly vascularised tissues (hyaline joint cartilage, tendon tissue), which has the consequence that irreversible damage occurs to connective tissue.
However, neither the occurrence nor possible interventions have been fully explained (H. I. Roach and S. Tilley, Bone and Osteoarthritis F. Bronner and M. C. Farach-Carson (Editors), Verlag Springer, Volume 4, 2007).
These aims cannot be achieved in the long term by pain treatment as a purely symptomatic therapy approach, since this cannot halt the progress of the disease.
However, abnormal cathepsin expression can result in severe diseases.
Thus, increased cathepsin expression has been detected in cancer cells, for example in breast, lung, prostate, glioblastoma and head and neck cancer, and it has been shown that cathepsins are associated with inadequate therapy success in breast, lung, head and neck cancer, and in brain tumours (Kos et al.
Although the known cathepsin D inhibitors and the two model compounds pepstatin and ritonavir effectively inhibit cathepsin D activity, they have, however, quite low selectivity for other aspartyl proteases.
In addition, the peptidic compounds in particular have low stability and are therefore not suitable for oral or systemic administration.

Preparation of the Compounds Formula I According to the Invention in which X═H and Q=CH2

[0234]The claimed compounds of the formula I in which X═H and Q=CH2 can be prepared, for example, by methods known to the person skilled in the art by the following synthesis sequences. The examples indicated describe the synthesis, but do not restrict this to the examples.

Synthesis Sequence:

[0235]

[0236]Starting from substituted ortho-nitrobenzaldehydes, a substituted ortho-nitrobenzylamine is prepared by reductive amination using a suitable amine and is converted into the corresponding aniline derivative by hydrogenation in the presence of a catalyst, for example Raney nickel. If the radical R contains functional groups which are reactive in the presence of a catalyst, for example Raney nickel, and hydrogen, reduction of these units may occur (for example alkenyl is converted into alkyl) and is part of the process. Cyclisation by reaction with cyanogen bromide at elevated temperatures of 10° C...

Preparation of the Compounds of the Formula I According to the Invention in which X═H or X═NH2 and Q=C═O

[0246]The claimed compounds of the formula I in which X═H (formula Ib) or X═NH2 (formula Ia) and Q=C═O can be prepared, for example, by methods known to the person skilled in the art, as described, for example, in Bio-organic Medicinal Chemistry (2007), 4009-4015. In a modification of this method, claimed compounds of the formula I in which X═H (formula Ib) or X ═NH2 (formula Ia) and Q=C═O can be prepared by the following synthesis sequences. The examples indicated describe the synthesis, but do not restrict this to the examples.

[0247]Synthesis Sequence:

[0248]Starting from substituted ortho-aminobenzoic acid esters, the corresponding isocyanates are prepared by reaction with thiophosgene or similar reagents. The cyclisation to give corresponding cyclic thiourea derivatives is carried out by reaction with a suitable amine under basic conditions at temperatures of 40° C. to 100° C.,...

Preparation of A21 (2-amino-3-indan-2-yl-3,4-dihydroquinazolin-7-yl)-(2,3-dihydroindol-1-yl)methanone

Step 1: 4-(2,3-Dihydroindole-1-carbonyl)-2-nitrobenzaldehyde

[0250]

[0251]4-Formyl-3-nitrobenzoic acid (650.00 mg; 3.33 mmol; 100.00 mol %) was dissolved in N,N-dimethylformamide (20.00 ml; 257.20 mmol; 7721.20 mol %), and INDOLINE (0.37 ml; 3.33 mmol; 100.00 mol %) and ethyldiisopropylamine (578.04 μl; 3.33 mmol; 100.00 mol %) were added. The reaction mixture was cooled in an ice bath, Hatu C10H15N6O*F6P (1.39 g; 3.66 mmol; 110.00 mol %) was added with stirring, and stirring was continued at RT overnight. For work-up, the reaction mixture was poured into sat. sodium hydrogencarbonate solution with stirring, stirring was continued for 30 min, the crystals formed were filtered off with suction and rinsed with water. Recrystallisation from a little EA gave 430 mg of 4-(2,3-dihydroindole-1-carbonyl)-2-nitrobenzaldehyde as beige crystals. (Yield 42%, content >97%). MS-FAB (M+H+)=297.0 Rf (...

Abstract

The present invention relates to compounds of the formula (I) and in particular to medicaments comprising at least one compound of the formula (I) for use in the treatment and / or prophylaxis of physiological and / or pathophysiological conditions in the triggering of which cathepsin D is involved, in particular for use in the treatment and / or prophylaxis of osteoarthritis, traumatic cartilage injuries, arthritis, pain, allodynia or hyperalgesia.

Description

[0001]The present invention relates to compounds of the formula I and in particular medicaments comprising at least one compound of the formula I for use in the treatment and / or prophylaxis of physiological and / or pathophysiological states in the triggering of which cathepsin D is involved, in particular for use in the treatment and / or prophylaxis of osteoarthritis, traumatic cartilage injuries, arthritis, pain, allodynia or hyperalgesia.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]Osteoarthritis is the most widespread joint disease worldwide, and radiological signs of osteoarthritis are found in the majority of over-65 year olds. In spite of this major importance for the health system, the causes of osteoarthritis remain unclear to date, and effective preventative measures furthermore remain a distant aim. A reduction in the joint gap (caused by destruction of the joint cartilage), together with changes in the subchondral bone and osteophyte formation, are the radiological characteristics of t...
